My 4 month old, exclusively breastfed baby has orange crystals in his diaper. This can happen about once a week. Is this a sign of dehydration?

Hello ma'am, this is indeed a possible sign that he is not drinking enough. Considering the presence of crystals, you should consult a doctor.

Well, I said the word crystals, but it's just an orange stain? Is it the same thing?

Yes, if it is stained orange I consider it necessary to consult.
